Welcome to The Kelly Effect™ — Public Speaking That Leaves a Mark

In this episode I go through a short clip from a speech by one of my favorite speakers, Simon Sinek. He must be having an off day because he is not his usual brilliantly eloquent self. I point out some double clutches, unnecessary pointing and "so"s, and how often he turns his back to the audience and speaks to his notepad. See if you agree with me!

This channel is for bold, brilliant, free-thinking humans who feel called to speak but refuse to settle for boring, buttoned-up, or by-the-book. Whether you’re an overthinking entrepreneur, an ADHD coach, or a story-rich speaker in progress—you’re in the right place.

As a professional speaking coach, I’ll show you how to:

✔️ Unmute your voice

✔️ Craft speeches that connect

✔️ Own your story without oversharing

✔️ Drop the pressure to perform

✔️ Leave your audience saying: “That’s gonna leave a mark.”

Because your message wasn’t meant to stay quiet.

And you? You were never meant to be on mute.
